Report Type


There are nine different types of reports. Each report type determines what types of accounts are displayed on the report. The report types are
- Budget
- Combined
- Dept.Obj
- Department
- Fund Obj
- Object
- Project
- Revenue
- Variance


Description


Report Description or Title of the report.


Subtotal on object pos/char


Determines where to place subtotals. The account object is stored in the system as a five-digit number (even if only a four-digit object). The first number in our example of 2:2 tells the system to begin with the second digit in the account object from the left and include two digits. For example, if our account object is 1105, the system stores this as 01105. The value of 2:2 uses the 11 to sort the data. Account objects 1100 to 1199 would be subtotaled. When it starts with 1200, a new subtotal value would begin.

SubTotal on object pos/char


Determines where you will generate subtotals. The account object is stored in the system as a five-digit number (even if you only use a four-digit object). The first number in our example of 2:2 tells the system to begin with the second digit in the account object from the left and include two digits. For example, if our account object is 1105, the system stores this as 01105. The value of 2:2 uses the 11 to sort the data.
Therefore, every time the value changes you will get a subtotal. Account objects 1100 to 1199 would be subtotaled. When you start with 1200, a new subtotal value would begin.
